about

An impassioned plea and a solemn resignation.

lyrics

Well, I'm so drunk that I can't see more than a foot in front of me and we know it's time to go 'cause they're askin' us to leave. In this barroom's amber hue, there's just one thing left to do. Our song's still playing on the juke and I've just gotta dance with you. Ain't got any nickels left to spend, so even though we know this is the end, you're all I need. Baby, stay and dance with me. I'm gettin' drunk so I won't see what is right in front of me. You can tell me you won't go, but we both know you wanna leave. And though you're glancin' towards the door, I can tell you aren't sure, so take my arm and we will find our answers out on the dancefloor. I'm not sure we can handle being friends, so even though this probably is the end, you're all I need. Baby, stay and dance with me. There are days when I can't see exactly what you see in me. Still can't admit I'd fall apart if I had to watch you leave. You light my cigarette and ask to just forget about the past, but tomorrow is a plan you've never been able to grasp. We smile and we kiss and we pretend that everything will work out in the end, but you're all I need. Baby, stay and dance with me 'cause you're all I can see. Baby, stay and dance with me.
